Also known as
kratix

What is Kratix?

Kratix is an open-source platform engineering framework that enables platform teams to build and deliver platform capabilities consistently to developers, automation, and AI agents. It orchestrates lifecycle, policy, and fleet-wide management through a composable architecture based on Promises and Workflows.

The Vioscale score: one lens on the evidence

Not user reviews and not a paid placement: a confidence-weighted blend of the independent signals below (adoption, activity, security posture, and more), which you can sort and re-weight yourself. Vendors can correct their listing but can never move their rank, and stars are weighted low as a vanity metric. It is one way to read the evidence for Kratix, not the verdict.
